Chitosans were prepared by H 2 O 2 oxidative depolymerization from squid pens with low molecular weights (LMW) of 13,025, 7011, 4169, 2242 and 963 Da. The bile acid binding capacities and antioxidant properties of LMW chitosans were studied in vitro . LMW chitosans exhibited stronger bile acid binding capacities than that of chitosan. The scavenging ability of LMW chitosans against DPPH radicals improved with increasing concentration, and EC 50 values were below 1.3 mg/mL. The EC 50 values of LMW chitosans against hydroxyl radicals ranged from 0.93 to 3.66 mg/mL. All LMW chitosans exhibited a strong ferrous ion chelating effect and reducing power. At 1 mg/mL, the scavenging ability of chitosan-963 towards superoxide radicals was 67.76%. These results indicated that LMW chitosans which have stronger bile acid binding capacity and antioxidant activities may act as potential antioxidants in vitro .

Antioxidant peptides of flatfish skin protein hydrolyzed by four enzymes(Papain, Pepsin, Trypsin and Neutrase, respectively)were investigated. The Trypsin hydrolysate obtained by hydrolysis exhibited the highest 1,1-dipheny-l-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)radical scavenging activity(DRSA)compared with other hydrolysates. Response surface method ology(RSM), based on Box-Behnken design, was used to study the influence of hydrolysis conditions on the DRSA. The optimal hydrolysis conditions were as follows: pH 7.38, temperature 48.2°C and enzyme/substrate(E/S)ratio 2 840 U/g. Under these conditions, the maximum DRSA was(22.85 ± 0.57)%,. The experimental values agreed with the value (23.09%,)predicted by the model within a 95%, confidence interval. By using gel filtration chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography(RP-HPLC), antioxidant peptide(D2-P)was isolated from flatfish skin protein hydrolysates(FSPH)and could exhibit a(54.28 ± 1.37)%, scavenging activity on DPPH radical at the concentration of 5 mg/mL. This is the first report of a scientific basis for the preparation of antioxidant peptides from flatfish skin. The results suggested that the antioxidant peptides can be exploited into functional foods or used as a novel source of nutraceuticals.

The effect of polydopamine coating on improving photostability of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) fiber was investigated in detail. Due to strong adhesion ability and self-polymerization of dopamine in alkaline solution, the polydopamine could be easily coated on polyphenylene sulfide fiber under mild conditions. XPS, ATR-FTIR and SEM, which indicated the polydopamine coating was homogeneous, confirmed the polydopamine coating on PPS fiber. The UV-spectra analysis of polydopamine coating showed that it had a strong absorbance in ultraviolet wavelength and was very stable to it, which implied that the polydopamine was a potential photoprotection agent. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) experiment further revealed that the PDA could quench free radicals, suggesting PDA was a good antioxidant. This scavenging ability of PDA might contribute to improving photostability of PPS fiber. Compared to pristine PPS fiber, the PPS fiber coated by polydopamine obviously had better photostability after ultraviolet irradiation according to mechanical test, which proved that polydopamine coating did improve the photostability of PPS fiber.

The biological process, 3-O-galactosylation, is important in plant cells. To understand the mechanism of the reduction of flavonol antioxidative activity by 3-O-galactosylation, myricetin-3-O-galactoside (M3OGa) and myricetin aglycone were each incubated with 2 mol α,α-diphenyl-β-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH•) and subsequently comparatively analyzed for radical adduct formation (RAF) products using ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS) technology. The analyses revealed that M3OGa afforded an M3OGa–DPPH adduct (m/z873.1573) and an M3OGa–M3OGa dimer (m/z958.1620). Similarly, myricetin yielded a myricetin–DPPH adduct (m/z711.1039) and a myricetin–myricetin dimer (m/z634.0544). Subsequently, M3OGa and myricetin were compared using three redox-dependent antioxidant analyses, including DPPH•-trapping analysis, 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl 3-oxide radical (PTIO•)-trapping analysis, and•O2inhibition analysis. In the three analyses, M3OGa always possessed higher IC50values than those of myricetin. Conclusively, M3OGa and its myricetin aglycone could trap the free radical via a chain reaction comprising of a propagation step and a termination step. At the propagation step, both M3OGa and myricetin could trap radicals through redox-dependent antioxidant pathways. The 3-O-galactosylation process, however, could limit these pathways; thus, M3OGa is an inferior antioxidant compared to its myricetin aglycone. Nevertheless, 3-O-galactosylation has a negligible effect on the termination step. This 3-O-galactosylation effect has provided novel evidence that the difference in the antioxidative activities of phytophenols exists at the propagation step rather than the termination step.

Raspberry possesses several health benefits such as antitumor, antioxidant, and blood sugar-regulating activities. In order to improve the use value of raspberries, the optimal preparation process of raspberry chewable tablets (RCT) and its physical, chemical, antioxidant, and hypoglycemic properties were investigated in this research. The optimum formulation of RCT was determined as 39.1% raspberry powder, 13.1% red beet root powder, 9.8% corn starch, 15% microcrystalline cellulose, 14% mannitol, 1% magnesium stearate, and 8% ethanol (75%) by single-factor experiment and response surface methodology using sensory evaluation score and hardness as parameters. RCT prepared using the optimal formulation had a hardness of 47.33 ± 2.31 N, brittleness of 0.33%, weight of 1.00 ± 0.03 g, and a color difference Δ E = 0.427. The total phenolic and total flavonoid contents of RCT were 18.610 ± 0.483 mg/g and 3.885 ± 0.061 mg/g, respectively. Meanwhile, seven phenolic compounds in RCT were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography. Free radical scavenging abilities ((1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH), (2,2′-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), ABTS), and ·OH), ferric ion-reducing antioxidant power and cell tests proved the significant antioxidant ability of RCT. The obvious inhibitory activities of RCT on α-glucosidase and α-amylase reflected its hypoglycemic potential. This study provided an important basis for the development of raspberry functional foods with antioxidant and blood glucose regulating potential.

Antioxidant activity, as a topic of current interest, is discussed together with the excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process for three flavonoid derivatives, based on density functional theory (DFT)and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) methods, as well as DPPH free radical scavenging assay. The potential energy curves and transition states demonstrate that the three molecules can undergo only single proton transfer in the excited state, and all of them are ultrafast ESIPT processes. The absorption spectra of all the molecules show effective protection against UV radiation with low fluorescence intensity, especially Baicalein (Bai), which demonstrates their great potential for sunscreen applications. The density of states, HOMO energy values, global and local indices reveal that the antioxidant activity of the molecules after ESIPT process is enhanced, with Bai having the highest antioxidant activity, which is significantly attributed to the number and position of phenolic hydroxyl groups. Moreover, by comparing the DPPH free radical scavenging activity under the dark and UV radiation conditions, the radical scavenging activity (RSA) value in the UV radiation is remarkably higher than that in the dark condition, in which Bai achieves RSA value of 93.4%. Overall, the antioxidant activity of all three ESIPT-based flavonoid derivatives, especially Bai, is significantly elevated in the keto* form, which reinforces the significant relationship between antioxidant activity and ESIPT process, and provides new application prospects for molecules with ESIPT properties.

BACKGROUND Active and smart food packaging based on natural polymers and pH-sensitive dyes as indicators has attracted widespread attention. In the present study, an antioxidant and amine-response color indicator film was developed by incorporating bilirubin (BIL) into the κ-carrageenan (Carr) matrix. RESULTS It was found that the introduction of BIL had no effect on the crystal/chemical structure, water sensitivity and mechanical performance of the Carr-based films. However, the barrier properties to light and the thermal stability were significantly improved after the addition BIL. The Carr/BIL composite films exhibited excellent 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (i.e. DPPH)/2,2′-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (i.e. ABTS) free radical scavenging abilities and color responsiveness to different concentrations of ammonia. The application assay reflected that the Carr/BIL 0.0075 film was effective in delaying the oxidative deterioration of shrimp during storage and realizing the color response of its freshness through the change of b * value. CONCLUSION Active and smart packaging films were successfully prepared by incorporating different contents of BIL into the Carr matrix. The present study helps to further encourage the design and development of a multi-functional packaging material. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract Antioxidants represent a potential therapy for cerebral ischemia–reperfusion injury (CIRI). Compounds which exhibit both direct and indirect antioxidative activity may potentially exert improved effects. Hence, we aimed to assess whether the dual antioxidant DH-217, a derivative of DHAP clinically used to treat coronary heart disease, can reduce oxidative stress damage and elucidate the underlying mechanism. Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 )-induced and Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO)-induced damages were used to imitate oxidative stress. The antioxidation of DH-217 was determined by MTT, ROS, colony and DPPH assay. Besides, immunofluorescence, Real-Time PCR Analyses, western blotting and si-RNA/Plasmid-induced protein expression were used for mechanism validation. DPPH scavenging assay evidenced DH-217 was a well free radical scavenger. Cell survival assay also showed that DH-217 had a significant cytoprotection through direct and indirect clearance mechanisms. Further, it clearly inhibited oxidative stress-induced IkappaB kinase beta (IKKβ) phosphorylation and increased heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression. Significantly, these antioxidant beneficial effects were reversed by HO-1 inhibitor, si-nuclear erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and IKKβ plasmid. Meanwhile, DH-217 had a good neuroprotective effect on CIRI rats. The dual antioxidant DH-217 has potential reference value for drug development of CIRI. Furthermore, inhibition of IKKβ phosphorylation and activation of Nrf2/HO-1 could be a promising antioxidant pathway. Graphical Abstract Dual antioxidant DH-217 not only has the ability of directly scavenging ROS, but also can clear it by targeting IKKβ/Nrf2/HO-1 signal axis. Inhibition of IKKβ phosphorylation and activation of Nrf2/HO-1 may be a promising antioxidant pathway for CIRI.

Previous studies have suggested that polypeptides extracted from milk, soybean, fish, eggs, and meat possess potential anti-inflammatory effects. To date, few studies have reported the anti-inflammatory function of sturgeon peptides and their underlying mechanisms are unknown. The current study was therefore to determine the anti-inflammatory potential of sturgeon peptides with lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW264.7 inflammatory model. Pepsin hydrolysate (PeH) was purified by ultrafiltration and Sephadex G-15 gel filtration chromatography. PeH significantly reduced the inflammatory mediator (NO) and inflammatory cytokines (IL-6、TNF-α and IL-1β) expression in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, the purified sturgeon peptide (F2) possessed strong antioxidant potential and effectively inhibited DPPH and ABTS free radicals. F2 significantly suppressed the expression of MAPKs, IκBα, and NF-κB p65, indicating that F2 exerted anti-inflammatory influence by the inhibition of MAPK and NF-κB pathways.

The protein hydrolysate of purple speckled kidney bean (PSKB) was used as the raw material in this study, and the antioxidant peptide of the PSKB protein hydrolysate was purified using macroporous resin. The XAD-7HP macroporous resin was selected as the best purification material, and the static adsorption-desorption of the purified PSKB antioxidant peptide was optimized. The optimum static adsorption and desorption conditions were as follows: the adsorption capacity reached 11.93 ± 0.11 mg/ml at pH 7 for 24 h, and the desorption capacity was 5.24 ± 0.04 mg/ml with 60% ethanol for 30 min. Under this condition, the amount of antioxidant peptide obtained by adsorption-desorption was the highest. The optimum process conditions were as follows: the appropriate flow rate was 1 ml/min, and the optimal injection volume was 40 ml. The adsorption amount at this time can reach 12.19 ± 0.15 mg/ml. The components with an elution time of 10–30 min were separated using the reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) technique to obtain three main components, namely, RP1, RP2, and RP3. The DPPH free radical scavenging ability reached 56.26 ± 0.56, 66.42 ± 0.56, and 78.57 ± 0.56%, respectively, which were 36.65, 46.34 ± 0.56, and 54.39 ± 0.56% higher than those before purification. The amino acid sequences of the three components were identified as Phe-Leu-Val-Asp-Arg-Ile, Phe-Leu-Val-Ala-Pro-Asp-Asp, and Lys-Asp-Arg-Val-Ile-Ser-Glu-Leu.
